Men of God, go take your stations

Author: Kelly Appears in 138 hymnals Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Glad Tidings Lyrics: 1 Men of God, go take your stations; Darkness reigns throughout the earth: Go proclaim among the nations Joyful news of heavenly birth; Bear the tidings Of the Saviour's matchless worth. 2 Go to men in darkness sleeping, Tell that Christ is strong to save; Go to men in bondage weeping; Publish freedom to the slave: Tell the dying, Christ has triumphed o'er the grave. 3 What though earth and hell united Should oppose the Saviour's reign; Plead his cause to souls benighted; Fear ye not the face of men: Vain their tumult, Earth and hell will rage in vain. 4 When exposed to fears and dangers, Jesus will his own defend; Borne afar 'midst foes and strangers, Jesus will appear your friend, And his presence Shall be with you to the end.

My Savior, how shall I proclaim

Author: J. Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Glad Tidings Lyrics: 1 My Saviour, how shall I proclaim, How pay the mighty debt I owe? Let all I have, and all I am, Ceaseless to all thy glory show. 2 Too much to thee I can not give; Too much I can not do for thee; Let all thy love, and all thy grief, Graven on my heart for ever be. 3 The meek, the still, the lowly mind, Oh, may I learn from thee, my God! And love, with softest pity joined, For those that trample on thy blood! 4 Still let thy tears, thy groans, thy sighs O'erflow my eyes, and heave my breast; Till, loose from flesh and earth, I rise, And ever in thy bosom rest. Scripture: Job 38:7
